My grandmother was Maria Sim (also spelled Szim/Szeim) born 1 Feb
1893 in Hutka. Her parents were Michal Sim (b. 1855 in Hutka) and
Pelagia Hudik (or Chudik). Pelagia was born 18 April 1864 in Vysny
Polianka. Michal and Pelagia were married on 19 May 1878. Michal's
father was Jan Sim. Pelagia's parents were Jan Hudik and Anna
Chromko (or Hromko).

I'd appreciate any information!

Thanks,

Kathy Neborak

... BASIC RESEARCH HELP For basic research help, be sure to visit Bill Tarkulich s excellent site at http://www.iabsi.com/gen/public/ CHURCH RECORDS AT LATTER

CHURCH RECORDS AT LATTER DAY SAINTS (MORMON) LDS FAMILY HISTORY
CENTER (FHC)
The Mormons have been microfilming historic vital records worldwide
for decades as part of their mission. The Mormons make their
collection available to anyone for viewing at their Family History
Centers (FHC). The microfilms are stored in Salt Lake City. When you
visit a center, you can "rent" a microfilm, by paying a small fee
(abt. $5 per film). The center will order the film on your behalf and
notify you when it arrives at their center. You can then use reserve
the microfilm readers to view these records.

There's one more thing to keep in mind about the FHC. For the most
part, the FHC volunteers will know NOTHING about research in Slovakia
or about the contents of the films. The volunteer may know about
his/her own heritage, but that is about it. That's where you need
groups like this to point you in the right direction.

When searching for genealogical information, knowing the birth
village is paramount because records are organized by village not
nationally, so it is not possible to search on a national basis. It
is also necessary to know the religion. To locate church records for
Slovakia, knowing the village/town name, go to the LDS web site:
www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHLC/frameset_fhlc.asp The church
records cover baptisms (krsteni),

LOCATE YOUR NEAREST FAMILY HISTORY CENTER AND ORDER FILM
You can go to the LDS web site to locate your nearest Family History
Center (FHC) and determine their hours of operation. You will need to
go there in person to order the film(s). In about a month, the film
will arrive and you can book a film reader and begin your research.

LDS has the very informative 1869 Hungarian Census on film for your
villages.

Your villages are northeast of Bartfa (Bardejov) in the purple area at
the top of the map.

SAVE the map on YOUR computer. OPEN the map in any graphics program.
CUT and PRINT the relevant section of the map. Otherwise, you just get
a corner. This map uses the Hungarian village names that you will
likely find in church records.

Yes, but it is not in Saros County. Go to this same page and change to the Spis/Spisz/Szepes county and when the map comes up look in the upper right hand

Yes, but it is not in Saros County. Go to this same page and change
to the Spis/Spisz/Szepes county and when the map comes up look in the
upper right hand corner for OLub. O'Lub or O'Lublau and directly south
of that lies Jakubany.

Maxine, Jakubany is due south of the present Slovak city of Stara Lubovna by about 6.5 km / 4 miles. If I recall correctly there are some S-R members searching
